Fiqh: A Practical Guide to Worshipping Allah (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798987400692)

Shari'ah (Islamic law) is much maligned in the media and in the world today. The term is abused and misunderstood. Yet for a Muslim, shari'ah represents the practical application of Islam in everyday life. The linguistic root of the word shari'ah is a path or way. Muslims believe that Allah is the law giver and that due to His knowledge and wisdom He already knows what actions are best for us and which will hurt us emotionally, spiritually or physically. The shari'ah represents what Allah, the Maker and Sustainer of all the worlds and Knower of all things, has directed His creation to do in order to live successfully by way of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of His Final Messenger Muhammad sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam. It is the key to achieving success in this world and earning the best reward in the Hereafter. The shari'ah encompasses everything from the way Muslims practice the most personal and intimate of matters to how they worship, conduct business or governance. All of that and more is a part of shari'ah and how to apply it is the job of Fiqh.

This book introduces some basic rulings of Islamic Fiqh related to personal hygiene, prayer and its effect on our mental health. It is written in simple and clear language that allows topics to be easily understood and designed in a manner that reinforces the concepts therein. We have used all authenticated hadeeth references and have put forward the positions of a majority of the scholars or the position which is closest to the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam. We have cited any difference of opinion when applicable.

This book is part of a courageous, new Islamic Studies curriculum for Al-Huda School. Features like the Brain Teaser boxes and Review and Reflect sections show everyday, practical applications of fiqh. We pray that this curriculum helps you draw closer to Allah. We would love to improve this curriculum with your suggestions. The book is in English with Arabic sections of Quran and hadith.
